In context

Before we open the line, Liz, I'd ask everyone in the queue to consider your fellow analysts and ask one question, so we can get to as many people as possible in the next 20 to 25 minutes, please open the line. Operator: [Operator Instructions] Our first question comes from Myles Walton with Wolfe Research. Myles Walton: Thanks. Good morning.

Specific to your question from a LEAP perspective, what we anticipate right now is a 20% to 25% increase in unit growth, I think we'll see installs get ahead of spares so that spares ratio will begin to moderate, more in line with the historic average of a typical lifecycle. So that's really where we are with respect to the narrowbody specifics you have there. Operator: Our next question comes from a line of Joe Ritchie with Goldman Sachs. Joe Ritchie: Hey, guys, good morning. Still like the end of an era, yea, as I said feels like the end of an era way to go out on a good note. So my one question is for Scott. So Scott, I'm just trying to bridge the free cash flow comments 2023 to ‘24. Clearly you guys have some numbers out on the slides. But the 2023 numbers look like it’s not apples-to”
